Barcelona host Eintracht Frankfurt in a crucial UEFA Champions League group stage clash at Camp Nou on December 9, 2025.
The Catalan giants, sitting 18th with seven points from five matches, aim to climb
toward automatic qualification against a struggling Frankfurt side ranked 28th with five points. Barcelona enter buoyed by three straight La Liga wins, including an 8-3 thriller over Real Betis, while Frankfurt have managed just one draw in their last four European outings.
Team News
Barcelona remain without Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Gavi, Dani Olmo, and Ronaldo Araujo due to injuries and personal reasons. Hansi Flick is expected to stick with a 4-2-3-1 setup, featuring Joan Garcia in goal, Gerard Martin partnering Pau Cubarsi in defense, and Frenkie de Jong alongside Pedri in midfield.
Frankfurt welcome back Can Uzun and Hugo Larsson from injury but face defensive woes after conceding 13 goals in their last four games. Dino Toppmöller's side may line up in a back five to counter Barcelona's attack.
